PROVIDENCE, R.I. – Lindsay Berman, a former standout at Northeastern University and assistant coach at UMass-Boston, has joined the women's ice hockey staff at Brown University as an assistant coach, head coach Amy Bourbeau announced.
"We are excited to have Lindsay join our staff," Bourbeau said. "She was an outstanding player in her time at Northeastern and has the experience to coach both our forwards and defense. Most importantly, she is an excellent role model for our student-athletes."
Berman comes to Brown after spending the previous three seasons as an assistant coach at UMass-Boston where she helped the Beacons steadily improve during her tenure and reach the ECAC East Tournament semifinals in 2013-14.
While with the Beacons, Berman implemented practice plans, broke down video, planned the team's travel, and coordinated recruiting efforts.
"I am honored and excited to be joining the Brown University women's hockey coaching staff," Berman said. "I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of such a storied program within this prestigious institution. I'm looking forward to working with a talented group of student-athletes, while coaching alongside Coach Bourbeau and Coach Kirchner. Brown women's hockey is in the midst of an exciting time, and I can't wait to get started."
As a collegiate player, she played in 135 career games from 2006-10 at Northeastern where she captained the team as a senior and earned a spot on the 2009 Hockey East All-Star Team that played the US national team.
Berman gained one of seven spots on Northeastern's All-Decade (2002-12) team and also garnered an invitation to the USA Under 22 National Development Camp in 2008.
A 2011 graduate of Northeastern, Berman went on to play for the Boston Blades in the Canadian Women's Hockey League from 2010-14 after her career as a Husky. Berman captained the team during the 2013-14 season and won the league's title, the Clarkson Cup, in 2012-13.
